the guests began eating.
The supper finished, the speaking COM

THE ToAsTs.
The first regular toast was:
The Grand Lodge of Georgia--The lagisla-
tive head of the order within the State. Re
Spouse by Grand Master C. b. LaIiatte.
The Grand Master in responding thanked
the subordinate lodges in behalf of the
Grand Lodge for the spread. The subor-
dinate lodges bear the same relation to the
Grand Lodge, said he, that children do
their parents. Continuing, he compliment
ed Savannah highly. and added that the
beautiful City by the Sea has good number
of officers OF the Grand Lodge The order
throughout the State is growing steadily,
and is now on higher plane of morality
than ever before.
THE SOVEREIGN GRAND LODGE.
The second toast was:
The Sovereign Grand Lodge-The fountain
of American Odd Fellowship, ever true to itself
and the teachings of the Order.

FL. Osborne as follows:
have often been impressed with that pecu-
larity of our natures which leads us 10 regard
with admiration, and something akin to venera-
ton, the governing power The patriot feels
thus TO his legislative counsel; the churchman
to his synod or conference; and the Odd
Fellow TO his Grand and Sovereign
Lodge. This feeling, / think IN
creases gains force-in proportion as the gov
erning body is possessed OF dignity, wisdom and
extended authority. II easily grows into love,
as the ability and inclination TO protect guide
and foster are shown 1t is not strange, there
fore that the loyal Odd Fellow should regard
with feelings of admiration and love the supreme
tribunal Of our order the Sovereign Grand Lodge
This supreme head has been Justly termed by
you the Fountain Head Of Odd Fellowship"
While it claims no monopoly of the wisdom
loyalty and conservatism Of the order, yet its
history for more than half century has proven
it a pure fountain. from which has proceeded
that which has given to American Odd Fellow
ship life and vigorous growth.

DELIVERING THE KEYS.
Capt David Porter, of Canton Chatham,
stepped forward and as chairman of the
Building Committee presented the keys of
the hall to the Grand Master and said that
it was not the business of the COMMITTEE, the
other members of which We're j. W. Fret
well and Jonas Mendel, to allude to their
own labors. The building is capable of
style, he added.
The Grand Master replied in the name and
in behalf of the Independent Order of Odd
Fellows of the State of Georgia. To-day
you witness the contamination of that for
which you have zealously and faithfully
labored, he observed. He congratulated the

SOME LATER HISTORY.
During the epidemic of 1876 the lodges
ounded a relief association which did much
good work in relieving the sick. Assist
ance was also rendered to other cities when
ever they were in need, as Chicago after the
Sacola and Shreveport when their citizens
were suffering. In August, 1881, the Grand
Lodge again met in Savannah Thomas A.
